Description Suggest change

Follow the approach to the Main Wall of Solaris. Mission To Mars starts behind a tree close to the rock, just right of a boulder-filled cave. A finger crack leads up to a right-facing corner capped by a roof.

Climb the finger crack (I protected it with yellow and red Aliens); for purity, don't use the tree. Clip the first bolt and power layback up to the second bolt (crux). Clip the third bolt under the roof, step left, and make a hard move over the roof to the anchors. The final move can be bypassed by stemming off the tree. Lower 35' to the start.

A short but fun route.

Protection Suggest change

4 bolts plus two finger-sized cams to a 2-bolt anchor.
